as "full of dynamite."
President Wilson, relieved the ardu

While it wns declared at tho White
House that no news had been received
of the reported decision of tho diplo

that capital in a body, it was admitted
that conditions there were such as to
render riots possible without notifica

tions and consulates at Mexico City
have been laying in supplies and that,
as a result they are now praeticallv the
only places in the capital having food
stuffs on hand. Hence food riots
would bo directed against these places.

ion Has Been Reached
In nil probability Kmil Hansett, tho
Belgian flax expert and son-in luw of
Kugenc Rosse who spent several years
of his life and a considerable sum of
money in the vain endeavor to establish
the flax fibre and linen industry in the
Willamette valley in the vicinity of
Salem, will be retained by the state
board of control to tuke charge of the
work of establishing the flax industry
in connection with the penitentiary.
While no decision has as yet been
reached in this connection, Mr. Hun
sett was in conference with tho govern
or and other members of the board this
morning and it is pretty generally un
derstood that he will bo employed to
have general supervision over the dis
tribution of the seed, the putting in and
harvesting of the crop anil in other
ways supervising the introductory work
concerning the industry.
Mr. Hansett was raised in the flax
industry in Belgium and knows every
detail of it from the ground up to the
manufacture of the finest grade of lin
en fabric, but his specialty is in the
culture of the fibre vurieties of flax
and his services to the state are regard
ed very vaulable. Aside from this. Mr.
Bishop Walter Taylor Sunnier, who
will arrive in Salejh this evening, is
one of tho most widely known aud in
fluential men in the Kpiscajinl church
in this country, and one of the fore
most figures among the clergy of the
churoh.
Before his election last September as
bishop of Oregon, he was dean of tho
cnthedral of Saints Peter and Paul, in
Chicago, where he was known as one of
tho foremost citizens and social worEers
in the city. ;
Ho was a member of various social
public bodies doaling with social ser
vice in all its forms. In addition to
his activities in Chicago church and so
cial work, ho was a tneniber of tho Chi
cago board of education; first vice
president of the Juvenile Protective as
sociation; chairman, of tho advisory
co'.nmittce of United Charities; chap
lain of the First Illinois cavalry; mem
ber of the Association of Commerce,
and advisory member ot the Boy Scouts
or America, uesuies a member of many
other organizations for the public good.
Upon his oleetion as bishop of Oro
gon, among tho letters of congratula
tion received try uishop Sumner was one
from Theodore Roosevelt, a part of
which is as follows: "Mrs. Roosevelt
and I are so well pleased that yon
should lie made bishon that we enii'not
deny ourselves the pleasure of writing
io ten you so.
Bishop Sunnier was born in Man
chaster, New Huinpshiie, December 5,
137:1, and was graduated from Dart
mouth college in 1SBS, and at the West
ern Theological seniinaiv in 111(14. llo
bugan his ministry -in Chicago and. in
iw.il wns appointed' .(lean of the Chi
cago cathedral.
'Hie election of Dean Sumner as bish
op of Oregon nt the convention held
in Oregon last September came as the
climax of a strong undercurrent of sen
timent in his favor which prevailed
thrnigiiout the session. Upon his (lec
tion one of the leading church papers
i-mieu mat tne inocese of Oregon, in
electing Dean Sunnier as their bishop,
cnllel to their leadership one of the
best known and foremost chinch work
ers in the middle west and one of the
best known citizens of Chicago.
During tiie bishop's stay in Salem
the following program has been ar
rnnged: Sunday morning nt 7:1)0 o'clock, at

New York, March 6. With her en
gine room and hold half filled with
water, the battleship Maine rested this
afternoon at the bottom of Shallow
Whitney basin, nt the Brooklyn navy
yard. The cause of tho accident which
sent tho warship down was not definite
ly known. At the navy yard it was
reported that in some manner the sea
valves had been left open, letting the
water into the hold.
As soon as this fact was diBcocvrcd
it was said, tho pumps wero started.
but were unnblo to dischargo the wator
as last as it entered, and tho vessel
tinnlly settled to the bottom, She
went down in tho shallow water close
to shore, and hor decks wero not (ub
merged.
The pumps wero kept going during
tne artemoon, whito, tujgs stood by
ready to tow tho Mnino to her dock
whenever she should bo sufficiently
lightened to bo moved.
The sea valves, through which it is
supposed the water entered the hold,
are used in discharging torpedoes. The

First reports had it that the break

London, March 0. -Tho admiralty,
announced this afternoon that the
AngloFronch fleet has entorod the
narrows of tho Dardanelles and is
bonibnniing the forts on both sides of
the strait. The land defenses nave

zine has been blown up.
The admiralty s statement was taken
to mean that Fort Kilid Bahr and pos
sibly Fort Chnnak hnd been Bilenc.ed
by tho firo of tho 15 inch guns of tho
tlect,
The narrows is the name givon to
thnt part of tho Dardanelles which
leads past tho Cullipoli peninsula into
the Sea of Marmora. It is one and ono
fifth miles wide. Once the allied fleet
is past this part of the straits, how
ever, tho way will bo clear to Con
stantinople. The narrows are heavily
strewn with mines nnd are guarded by
tons of the modern type.
The distanco across the Sea of Mar
mora fmni tho end of the Dardanelles
to Constant inoplu is about 125 miles j
but thero is nothing to stand in tho
way of a fleet steaming against tho
Turkish capital and shelling it.
The ndniirnlitiy '1; statement - shows,

BLOODY FIGHT WON BY FRENCH
By Henry Wood.
Paris, March 0. Bloody fighting id
a ravine northwest or Benuzjour, in
which the French were victorious,
marked the progress of the Churnpngn a
region conflict, the war office hero an
nounced in an official statement issued
today.
After being benten bnck by th
Cnllic forces, the statement said, the
(iermnns made a counter attack, which
wns repulsed with heavy loss.
French gains in the vicinity ot
Perthes wero claimed. A German force

Is Member of Board But Has
Promise of Two Votes and
Believes He Can Make It
There is a lively skirmish on for tho
position of secretary of board of stale
fair directors between the present in
cumbent, Frank Mercilith, who has hehl
the position for several years, ami V.
Al. Jones, of Joseph, Wallowa county,
a member of the Inst legislature ami
also a member of the stute fair board.
While the contest iins not been settled
definitely and will not be until the fait
bonnl acts upon it nt the next meet
ing, which has been culled for next
Tuesday, it is umlerstool from pretty
gooil authority that Mr. Join's lacks 011
vote in having enough to elect him,
and since, as a mcinher of the bonnl,
he cannot vole for himself, the imli
cations at present arc that lie will lose
out.
Mr. Jones wns appointed a member of
tho board of state fair directors two
years ago by former flovernor West, al
though he is a republican in politics, ,
ami it is reported that he at one time
considered the advisability of resign
ing from the hoard when he became a
candidate for the secretaryship, but lie
has not done so up to the present It
is saiil that two of the members have
promised to support him for the job of
secretary, which carries a salary of
IS00 per year, but unless he can inns
ter the support of another member the
vote will lie a tic and a ileaillock, ami
will probably result in the retention
of Secretary Meredith.
